as there is a conflict between openal and sdl (when compiled with cdrom
support), i had to disable support for cd playing using sdl on os x
for the time being.
* Blender static now links. By default this option is disabled on all
platforms. Simply set the option in config.opts to 'true'.
* Added the following flags to config.opts:
- HOST_CC. This is the C compiler for the host platform. This value is the
same as TARGET_CC when not cross compiling.
- HOST_CXX. This is the C++ compiler for the host platform. This value is
the same as TARGET_CXX when not cross compiling.
- TARGET_CC. This is the C compiler for the target platform.
- TARGET_CXX. This is the C++ compiler for the target platform.
- TARGET_AR. This is the linker command for linking libraries.
- PATH This is the standard search path
All SConscript files have been updated to reflect these changes. Now it's
possible to change only the root SConstruct file, and all compiler specific
variables are passed automatically to all SConscript files. Of course, this
does not apply to makesdna because there the host and target platform is
different from all other libraries.
To pass a variable that applies to all platforms, all we now have to do is
set the correct value in library_env
Note: as usual, to get the latest options in the config.opts file, first
remove your version.
* OpenAL support is now available on Linux. By default this feature is
disabled since it is only necessary when building the game engine. And the
game engine is disabled by default as well, so...
* Added 3 configurable options to config.opts. These apply to OpenAL settings.
NOTE: remove your current config.opts file to get the new options. (remember
your current settings though ;) )
2nd NOTE: All options* are now configurable via the config.opts file. If the
default settings for your platform are not correct, you should be
able to only update the config.opts file.
* FMOD is still not available - and I do not know if it is necessary to
enable this feature.
* libraries are now generated in [BUILD_DIR]/lib
* passed the user_options to all libraries now.
This means I could remove a couple of Export/Import lines.
* Changed the order in source/blender/src/SConscript and
source/gameengine/SConscript.
All libraries are now sorted alphabetically. This has no impact on the build
process.
Materials are exported the best we can do by now. It will look almost as in
blender except for the missing procedural textures and some minor issues.
You have to tweak normal modulation amount to get the desired result cause
is not the same in yafray.
We added a panel in render space to adjust some yafray settings (GI and so)
Also we export transparency and reflection using new raytracing settings,
but that will be changed and improved soon.
Remember that you have to set YFexport path in user defaults and yafray must
be on path (version 0.0.6)
We added the "yafray" button to activate all this stuff in the render window.
Panel and settings are only shown when checked.
So now when activated the code calls yafray export instead of the internal
renderer and finally the resulting image is loaded back into render window's
buffer. So animation is also possible and results can be saved using blender
usual scheme.
You'll need SCons (www.scons.org) to build.
Platforms currently working:
* Linux (me)
- options for quicktime, openal and international disabled
- uses the system libs and include files for building - no option to build
with the precompiled libraries yet.
* Windows (jesterKing)
- builds with quicktime (optional)
- builds with openal (optional)
- builds with international support (optional)
- Use the DOS box to build
- builds with precompiled libraries
* Irix (Hos)
- Uses default Irix compiler
- Not all optimization levels correct yet
- options for quicktime, openal and international disabled
- builds with precompiled libraries
* Cygwin (me)
- has a problem in the linking stage
- uses free build tools (gcc)
- options for quicktime, openal and international disabled
- uses the system libs and include files for building - no option to build
with the precompiled libraries yet.
* MacOS (sgefant)
- builds with quicktime (optional)
- options for openal and international disabled
- builds a nice bundle
- builds with precompiled libraries
Thanks to IanWill for a bugfix in the Linux build.
Note: This is a work in progress. A lot still has to be done - for example the
optional parts are only to be enabled by directly setting 'true' or
'false' in the SConstruct file. This needs to be moved to a user config
file. Also, the .o/.obj files are stored in the source tree. This needs
to be fixed as well.
The game engine is not yet built.
(seems half of the references were one way, the other half were
the other way). Also made irix link to $(OCGDIR)/intern/*SoundSystem/*
instead of $(OCGDIR)/gameengine/*SoundSystem/*
I need to get openal working on my machine before I can test it so
if it doesn't work feel free to fix it. Hopefully this will be
the majority of the stuff though.

SoundSystem has been moved from source/gameengine to intern. This was needed
because functionality from SoundSystem was needed by
source/blender/src/editsound.c.
* Removed the option for the openal check in configure.ac. It's needed now by
SoundSystem
* Removed the functionality for checking if 'noaudio' was provied on the
commandline. Now audio is default on.
Florian Eggenburger).
Full instructions are in doc/README.windows-gcc.
Main differences from Florian's patch:
- the 'lib' dir should now be the same level as the 'blender' dir (rather
than being a subdir of 'blender'). This is consistent with the other
platforms that bf-blender supports (tuhopuu will also adopt this convention
hopefully soon).
- the script 'free_windows-env.mk' is no longer needed ... see the
docs about how this is overcome (again, tuhopuu will hopefully
also follow this route soon).
- the dlltool dir has it's own Makefile that builds all of the
needed stub libraries from the dll's in cvs.
(I noticed its not completely gone yet from the blender/source dir)
But its a big step in the right direction if it doesn't enable
all of the functionatlity already...
(Using cscope for LICENSE_KEY_VALID still turns up some stuff)

also the Makefile.in's were from previous patch adding
the system depend stuff to configure.ac
